Aaaargh, what is it about paragraph after paragraph of Cendese narrating a spice scene in dual format that burns me out so fucking bad, to the point that I'm tempted to DNF? I honestly am coming to an ever firmer conclusion that I just shouldn't bother with Cendese when he's not in duet. (I'll forever love him in Merc & Mort, though.)
Mildly sad Cendese and Zaba won't be getting cameos in Mon & Mas...

At least by the end of it the cult elements became more serious?

Nearly 2/3 of the way through a book ostensibly about someone deep in a cult, and as someone who understands the BITE model and how damaging cults actually are... I'm really frustrated by how flippant this book is about the cult elements, like it's only mildly problematic. Not that everything about cults has to be SUPER SERIOUS, but in that case it should be a comedy, so it's obvious it's not serious.

When the book actually lampshades the black cat and golden retriever tropes.
Also, I'm looking forward to these books moving on from their awkwardly "sexy man calendar" covers that don't really represent the book at all.
